"Os Corpos de Bombeiros Voluntários estão espalhados por praticamente todas as sedes de município e por muitas outras povoações de Portugal, sendo responsáveis pela grande maioria das operações de socorro no país, em virtude do reduzido número de Corpos Profissionais existentes.

Os Corpos de Bombeiros Voluntários dependem de associações humanitárias de âmbito local, que são financiadas através dos seus sócios, de peditórios à população, de subsídios públicos e do desenvolvimento de actividades de cariz lúdico e cultural."
